Notably, by-products of vegetable processing can also serve as a rich source of phytochemicals. An important step in pasta processing is drying which can affect the content of bioactive compounds in pasta. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of drying on the nutritional quality and cooking properties of durum wheat pasta fortified with broccoli leaves. Pasta enriched with broccoli leaf powder (BLP) at 2.5% (B2.5) and 5% (B5), and control pasta without BLP (C), which differed in drying conditions: fresh pasta without drying (F), pasta dried at 50°C for 8 h (L), and pasta dried at 80°C for 3 h (H) were formulated. The obtained pasta products were analysed for the cooking properties (optimal cooking time, cooking loss, water absorption and swelling capacity); colour parameters; proximate composition; and contents of free amino acids (FAA), fatty acids and sugars. BLP significantly improved the contents of ash by up to 35 g/100 g, FAA and fatty acids to up to 1298 nmol/g dry matter (DM) and 16741 µg/g DM, respectively, without compromising the cooking quality of pasta. Drying had a significant effect on fatty acids, which content in pasta processed at the highest temperature tested decreased. From the nutritional point of view, the low-temperature drying seems to be an interest ing method for pasta preparation, with the highest content of FAA, fatty acids, especially unsaturated ones, and the lowest content of sugar. However, at the same time, the dried pasta products were characterised by greater cooking loss approximating 10%.","PeriodicalId":20332,"journal":{"name":"Polish Journal of Food and Nutrition Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48578968","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Twenty four saponins with oleanolic acid, hederagenin, akebonoic acid and gypsogenin as aglycons were identified and quantified by liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC--ESI-MS/MS).

The objective of this study was to examine the effect of A. distichum flower extract (ADE) on the yield and nutritional value of soybean sprouts. Soybean seeds were soaked in ADE solutions with concentrations ( w/v ) of 0.5% (ADE-0.5), 1% (ADE-1), 3% (ADE-3), and 5% (ADE-5). The effect of ADE concentration on the yield and different nutrient components varied. The highest soybean sprout yield and vitamin C content were found with ADE-3. The most abundant essential amino acid content was detected in ADE-1, whereas the greatest amounts of total isoflavones and to tal minerals were determined in ADE-5 and the ADE-untreated control, respectively. Overall results of yield, color, and contents of vitamin C, amino acids, and isoflavones suggest that 1% or 3% of A. distichum extract could be an optimum concentration to soak the soybean seeds for higher sprout yield and nutrient content.","PeriodicalId":20332,"journal":{"name":"Polish Journal of Food and Nutrition Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45922794","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The addition of barley malt flour at a mean rate of 0.5% or wheat malt flour at a mean rate of 0.7% reduced the time needed for the wheat gel to reach its maximum viscosity by 67.2%, compared to the control sample (without malt flour added). Bread made of flour blends with malt flours added was characterised by a higher loaf volume and specific volume as well as darker crust and crumb. The addition of malt flours also led to significantly reduced hardness, gumminess, and chewiness of bread crumb.

The purpose of this research work was to decrease the degradation rate of extractable colour of paprika powders to 3–4 ASTA units/month and increase the shelf-life. Fractional factorial experimental design and desirability function-based approach was applied to moderate the adverse effect of the key-importance processing steps on colour agent content. Photochemical-accelerated shelf-life test was used for the empirically-based quality improvement. Post-harvest ripening, drying, sorting (seed content), milling and additives (paprika seed oil, tocopherol extract) were identified as important for the degradation rate of extractable colour. The colour stability was very sensitive to the milling and drying intensity, while proper setup of other processing steps compensated the adverse effect of drying and milling parameters. The supplementation with cold-pressed spice paprika seed oil was demonstrated as a natural way of colour stabilization. At the highest desirability value (0.986) the rate constant of accelerated colour stability test (k) and shelf-life time (θS[100ASTA]) were -0.494 ASTA units/day and 2326 days, respectively. Alternative factor level settings enabled taking into account processing-tradition and efficiency expectation. In these cases, desirability values and the predicted shelf-life were 0.5–0.8 and 712–918 days, respectively. Validation study showed that the real observed rate constant and shelf-life values met the predicted values and their 95% confidence interval.","PeriodicalId":20332,"journal":{"name":"Polish Journal of Food and Nutrition Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46768826","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
